sitting in local 506 last night waiting for the heartless bastards to play…

some religious sects say that it is what you want to see that is your heaven.

some believe in a waiting period…much like limbo…but not for a bad reason…just a place you are before you move on.

the room is dark. i’m sitting on a bar bench against the wall and there are only a few people scattered around. bon iver is playing and it is all very quiet. we are all waiting for something. we are all here from different places, but there is a bond. we are here for the same thing. i feel this is what that limbo must be like.

more people trickle in and bon iver is taken over by voices. some who have never spoken before to one another. and then the band takes the stage and there is a sense of shared exhaltation that takes over the crowd. and everything that was going on in your mind before is replaced by this. these next moments and everything else slips away.

i hope this is what i see…
